Hi all,
I am wondering about the right name for Autoconf compact package. I need to
add the latest release of autoconf into EPEL so I need a package with a
different name. Currently, there are in fedora autoconf, autoconf213, and
autoconf268. The latest version is 2.71 so I have few options in my mind:

    - compat-autoconf
    - compat-autoconf27
    - autoconf27

What do you think?

The last one is almost the currently recommended convention. The correct
name would be "autoconf2.7":

Also, the autoconf2.7 EPEL package would need to be created in a way that would not conflict wit the RHEL's autoconf package, due to the EPEL policy that forbids conflicts with RHEL:
